Project Epsilon

[Diomedes]

Joao listened, to Jasmine's reply, then cocked his head slightly. His comm-unit was connected to an non-descript ear-piece, but it was an old habit from having the mic on his collar.

"Right, good. Make sure we're ready to go then. Vamos," Joao said back into the comm.

Turning back to Jasmine, Joao said, "Of course, do not let us keep you. We will be shipping out shortly, so there's no need to arrange accommodations. Roberto has completed the transfer protocol so HexCinq can get the files, and also contacted an old friend of mine. He's will transport the holotainment-bands to Orkney on his ship the Meriones. We'll meet him there and bring two loads in to Montbard with the Diomedes.

"Jose is a rather efficient man, so if we don't head off as soon as the ship is ready, he'll be waiting for us on the other end. If you ever need larger hauls of anything I can put you in touch with him, he won't appreciate the Navy lobbing plasma at his transport, but we can work out the security.

"Other than that, thank you for your hospitality Jasmine, it was great to see what the goods we brought in are doing. And your work is quite something for sure."

"Yes, that it is. What we could do to the ship's systems with a fraction of this.." Gunther mused, "And of course, thank you for taking the time to show us."

"Indeed, thank you. Now, we will be off and should return in short order with the holotainment-bands you require," Catalina added, giving Gunther a slight elbow in an attempt to cut his sense of awe at all he'd seen.

"Yes, we'll be off. Thank you again Jasmine. Au revoir, I believe you say? And of corse as we say, boa sorte," Joao added finally.
